How it compares
On travel, the Centurion Numinis is right where the “e-MTB for trail and touring” category usually is: 150 mm up front against a median of 150 mm from 101 bikes. The rear offers 140 mm, 10 mm less than the front. On travel, it slots in between the Centurion Lhasa and the Centurion No Pogo in the Centurion range. The frame is made of aluminium.
Entry costs €4,749 for the R1000 build – less than the category median of €5,500. For the R3000 ABS build, Centurion asks €6,749. Depending on the build, fork and shock come from FOX, RockShox and SR Suntour. In total, 3 different forks are used, from the SR Suntour Zeron36X EQ Air to the FOX AWL HD eMTB+. Drive comes from Bosch Performance Line CX, paired with 800 Wh of battery capacity.
Setup notes for this spec
- Air fork (RockShox Psylo Gold RC ABS): the air valve is on top of the left leg under a cap. Change pressure in small steps (about 5 psi (0.34 bar)) and cycle the fork a few times afterwards so the air chambers can equalise.
- Rebound: on FOX and RockShox suspension the rebound adjuster is red. Always count clicks from fully closed (clockwise to the stop) so you can return to any setting.
- Air shock (SR Suntour Edge X 2CR): measure SAG in your riding position, ideally with a helper holding the bike. Cycle the shock a few times after every pressure change.
- e-MTB: the extra weight mainly affects tyre pressure, which is why the table below already includes a surcharge. SAG is measured just as on a bike without a motor.
Target SAG for the Centurion Numinis
SAG is the share of travel your weight already uses in the riding position. The table gives it straight in millimetres – read the O-ring on the stanchion and on the shock shaft and adjust the air pressure until it matches. Any figures from Centurion take priority.
150 mm fork, 52.5 mm shock stroke (all builds)
| Riding style | Fork SAG | Shock SAG |
|---|---|---|
| XC / touring | 17 % = 26 mm | 24 % = 12.6 mm on the shock shaft |
| Trail | 20 % = 30 mm | 28 % = 14.7 mm on the shock shaft |
| Enduro / rough | 22 % = 33 mm | 30 % = 15.8 mm on the shock shaft |
| Bike park | 20 % = 30 mm | 27 % = 14.2 mm on the shock shaft |
How to measure SAG is explained in our guide SAG setup.
Tyre pressure starting values
The values apply to 2.40″ wide tubeless tyres with a trail casing, including the e-MTB surcharge. With an inner tube add about 0.2 bar (2.9 psi), with an insert take off about 0.1 bar (1.5 psi). Stock tyres: MAXXIS Dissector 29x2.4" / MAXXIS Dissector 29x2.4"; SCHWALBE Nobby Nic 29x2.4" / SCHWALBE Nobby Nic 29x2.4".
| Ready-to-ride weight | Front | Rear |
|---|---|---|
| 60 kg | 1.48 bar (21 psi) | 1.68 bar (24 psi) |
| 70 kg | 1.60 bar (23 psi) | 1.80 bar (26 psi) |
| 80 kg | 1.72 bar (25 psi) | 1.92 bar (28 psi) |
| 90 kg | 1.84 bar (27 psi) | 2.04 bar (30 psi) |
| 100 kg | 1.96 bar (28 psi) | 2.16 bar (31 psi) |
| 110 kg | 2.08 bar (30 psi) | 2.28 bar (33 psi) |
| 120 kg | 2.20 bar (32 psi) | 2.40 bar (35 psi) |
Air pressure in the fork and shock
The sticker on the fork (or on the shock) and the manufacturers’ setup charts give you a first pressure. Our calculator is more precise and suggests rebound too – always check the result via SAG.
